The best YouTubers in Australia aren’t simply the channels with the most subscribers. YouTube shows videos to people based on how the video performs individually, not just based on who subscribes to the channel. As a result, a small or mid-sized channel can reach more people than one several times its size.
That’s why we rank Australian YouTubers by median views of their videos (the average number of people a typical video reaches). As of October 2026, the five most watched are Bundun, EYstreem, Shrimpy, Misfit Minds, and CringyGull.
Eight groups by subject, from block games and sketches to the bush and the open road. The number beside each name is the creator’s overall rank.

We analysed the 2,842 videos these 45 creators published on YouTube in the last 30 days. Of those, 895 beat their creator’s usual views by 3× or more.
Here is how this month’s breakouts open, read from what each video says in its first seconds, or from its caption when nobody speaks.
“Dessert’s ready.”
Of the 87 breakouts whose words we could read, 73 have speech, and 35 of those open in the middle of a sketch, with no greeting and no setup, across 9 channels. Their usual uploads open the same way, so the first line is not what changed.
Lyanna Kea 5.5M views · 37× their usualWhat changed is the premise. Lyanna Kea’s biggest videos put a mum character at the table, on the phone, and in public, and 13 of Vindooly’s 17 breakouts are about one Roblox game, Steal an Egg.
“Who did Alan marry first?”
Nobody speaks in 14 breakouts from 7 channels: a song, a dance edit, or a gag set to music, with the caption carrying the joke.
OG Crew 2M views · 6.3× their usualFor the two couples, Cadel and Mia and Jasmin and James, that is simply the format: their biggest Shorts and their usual ones are dance trends and gags over a song. OG Crew is the change. Its long episodes are all talk, yet an eight-second clip with a caption and a song did better than any of them this month.
“Oh, no. People’s iPhone Duo screens are breaking all over the world.”
Five breakouts open on something going wrong: a locked game dimension, skins that reset, no V-Bucks left, a folding phone that cracks.
SAMTIME 3M views · 5.1× their usualFor CringyGull it was the change: both breakouts open on a Minecraft problem, and the usual uploads open on a question or channel news. SAMTIME plays a phone company in crisis in many uploads, so for that channel it is the format.
Jasmin and James: “SUBSCRIBE FOR 7 YEARS OF GOOD LUCK! 🍀😅” reached 69M views, 451.4× their usual.
Cadel and Mia: “What do you think we will be for halloween?! 🎃🤭” reached 71M views, 135.5× their usual.
Vindooly: “Types of Steal an Egg Players..” reached 7.8M views, 15.4× their usual.
This table shows what the Australian channels on this list do at each size on YouTube. Use it to judge whether a creator’s numbers are strong for their tier.
| Tier | Subscribers | Median views | Engagement | Videos a week | Sponsored videos |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mid | Under 500K | 215K | 3.9% | 1.1 | 4% |
| Macro | 500K to 2M | 321K | 2.5% | 1.9 | 17% |
| Mega | Over 2M | 399K | 2.6% | 2.1 | 1% |
The figures are medians across these 45 channels, from each channel’s recent videos. “Sponsored videos” is the share of videos in the 90 days to 30 Oct 2026 that carry a paid-promotion label or a stated sponsor, or are part of a brand campaign.
If you’re an Australian brand choosing a first YouTube creator and haven’t settled on a topic, these checks matter more than the subscriber count.
An Australian channel does not mean an Australian audience. Gaming and Shorts channels can draw most of their views from overseas. Ask for the country split from YouTube Studio before you pay for reach you can’t sell to.
Some channels here upload six times in three months; others post several Shorts a day. A read in one long episode and a mention in one Short among dozens are different purchases, so price them separately.
A sketch Short can hold a product for a few seconds. A long review, a repair, or a camping episode can hold a full read and a demonstration. Choose the channel for the slot your product needs.
On some channels here a sponsor appears in nearly every upload, often from the same few product types: VPNs, website builders, meal kits. On others there has been none for three months. Both tell you how your read will sit.
Ask the creator to tick YouTube’s paid-promotion box when the video goes up. A ticked box also takes the video out of the YouTube Kids app, which matters for the Roblox and Minecraft channels.
We identified and ranked these creators by searching hundreds of thousands of top-performing videos on YouTube from Australia with Klint.
We rank by median views across each channel’s recent videos, so one viral video can’t lift a channel up the list. Creators qualify if they were born or raised in Australia and live there now, run the channel themselves rather than for a brand or a studio, uploaded at least six times in the 90 days to October 30, 2026, and have a median of 100,000 views or more.
To get this list or a similar one for yourself, describe the creators you’re looking for in the Klint web app, or paste this prompt into any AI agent connected to Klint:
Find the top 45 Australian YouTubers, raised in Australia and living there now, ranked by median views across their last 30 videos or their last 90 days, whichever is lower. Show subscribers, median views, engagement, and a standout video.
Klint is trusted by 1,000+ marketers for AI-native influencer marketing.
As of October 2026 the top five Australian YouTubers by median views are Bundun, EYstreem, Shrimpy, Misfit Minds, and CringyGull.
By subscribers it is Jasmin and James, with 43.2 million. By how many people watch a typical video it is Bundun, with a median of 1.82 million views across recent videos and 3.96 million subscribers.
LazarBeam uploaded three times in the 90 days to October 30, and the list asks for six. Andy Cooks lives in Sydney but grew up in New Zealand, and the list is of creators born or raised in Australia. Veritasium’s Derek Muller lives in Los Angeles, and Muselk and Fresh have not uploaded in more than a year.
By hand, search YouTube for your topic, then open each channel’s About page and recent uploads to see where it is based and how often it posts. With Klint you can ask for “Australian YouTubers who review camping gear, under 500K subscribers” and get the channels with their recent views.
It depends on the slot more than the subscriber count: a read inside a long video, a dedicated video, and a single Short are priced differently, and usage rights or exclusivity add to the fee. Ask for a rate card and for the views on the channel’s recent sponsored videos.
Yes. Any creator can ask to be taken off Klint’s lists, and the request applies to every page they would otherwise appear on.
Are you on this list and would you rather not be? Write to privacy@tryklint.ai and Klint will take you off.
